TOP TOURS AROUND BODØ is a ski guide to 89 mountains around Nordland's largest city. The book covers the regions of Reipå, Sandhornøya and Småtindan, Børvasstindane, Bodø and Valnesfjorden, Mistfjorden, Sjunkfjorden and Beiarn. Ski touring is the new national sport of the 21st century, and all over Norway, ski enthusiasts are discovering the unique combination of the pleasure of touring, discovering nature and playing on skis. The mountainous areas around Bodø may not have received the same national and international attention as the other coastal mountains of northern Norway, but there's no shortage of skiing opportunities in the neighboring towns. The vast majority of ski runs are in the mountains around Valnesfjord, where Heggmotinden, Nattmålstuva and Kvalhornet are targets for night excursions with a headlamp, and Kistrandfjellet offers everything a playful skier could wish for. Per Kalsastinden rises at Børvasstindene and is a landmark for Bodøværingers and skiers alike. Småtindan further south is another well-known ski destination, while Sandhornøya was almost discovered in winter 2012. By boat from Festvåg to Breidvika, you enter the summit-hiking paradise Mistfjorden, where the peaks are close together, perfect for a spring trip in April or May. The idyllic Sjunkfjorden is surrounded by imposing peaks, many of which are skiable on the north side, where you can find dry snow in May. In Beiarn, you'll find an inland climate, large mountain ranges and an infinite number of runs to choose from. TOP TOURS AUTOUR DE BODØ is a one-stop guide to all these areas.
All routes are described with route drawings on aerial photographs. For each area, there's an overview map (1:100,000), showing all the peaks.
Top Tours Around Bodé is a unique guide to all these areas.
